No exception? How to read the rest
- Label created: The carrier has the shipment details but hasn't scanned the parcel yet. That happens at pickup or drop-off.
- In transit: The parcel has been scanned and moves from depot to depot. Every scan is a new line in the tracking. More about tracking scans.
- Exception: Something isn't going to plan: a delay, a customs issue or a failed delivery attempt. The carrier's message says what's going on; below you can see what each message means.
- Delivered: The parcel has been delivered. Often you can also see who signed for it.
